Full bodied and complex wine. Notes of blackberry, currant, pepper and floral. Wine feels a bit young even after decanting for 2+ hours. Excited to see what it will be in a handful of years. — 2 years ago
Very smooth, mild tannins. — 9 months ago
Given that I am the only reviewer thus far, I feel the need to provide an update. Enjoying my last bottle now. The nose is of prune, stewed fruits, earth. On the palate, the tannins are now fully integrated, muddled blue and black fruits dominate, with some raisin and prune. A much better showing than my prior review. I feel almost apologetic because this is a very good Gigondas. I wouldn't hold this longer though.

A nice Grenache blend that pairs well with chili. September 2023. — 10 months ago
Amazing ‘garigue’ with a more rounded fruit on the background and in the immediate aftertaste after the sip. Great experience. 2010 is still very young in 2022 — 2 years ago

We tasted nine Minervois Red Blends (Languedoc region of France), an unknown AOC to our group. This was designated a “vin de table” because as a single-varietal, it did not conform to the Minervois arcane AOC rules. I loved it anyways — 4 months ago
